I set out to find a small, kid-sized backpack that was BPA free, Phthalate free, and PVC free. Sounds like a tall order in this day and age, right?!
Well, I stumbled on a fantastic, eco-groovy backpack perfect for toddlers:
Zoo Packs: Little Kid Backpacks by Skip Hop
My favorite part? They are sized for toddlers so that actually fit my two year old. She doesn’t look like she’s about to fall over backwards when it’s stuffed full. It’s not so heavy or bulky that she’s uncomfortable when wearing it.
My daughter’s favorite part? She can fill it up with her stuff and it’s her special bag. She wants us to bring it everywhere.
And the bag comes in other animals too!
They’re not super expensive and I think they’re adorable. Learn more.
i kind of want the penguin one for myself..
those are darn cute! thanks for sharing. before I knew I was having a girl, I found some organic canvas super sweet kid backpacks clearanced at Target ($4.99) – so I was brave and got one girly and boy color scheme – they’re still in the closet, but I was so happy to score such simple, nice little bags!
Fantastic find! Maybe it’s just a teacher thing, but it used to bother me I saw kids lugging full backpacks that were far too big for their bodies. Alice can have the penguin one — I want the froggy!
